Darjeeling Bluestone

It all started with a stumble upon the blog, Little Green Notebook, where I took in every piece of what this designer had to offer. (I had time because it was one night when I couldn't sleep.) Then I came across the post about her $25 coffee table she had transformed into an ottoman. She's brilliant I tell ya and daring too! A great combination. Then, came the fabric. Here it is. Isn't it pretty?

So, I went on a little mini-hunt and found this fabric, which is a close-enough substitute, at Calico Corners. I am going to find a way to get it cheaper and then recovered a much smaller but free ottoman we have in our living room. I cannot wait!I really need no more projects. Here is my current wish list for the living room: recover two wing chairs, have the sofa recovered (this will be a while), and revamp the table Jacob built for me. But this fabric gets me excited and motivated.
